“We’re the same damn age!” I raised my voice. She shook her head, rolling her eyes at my behavior.
Lmaooo
“What’s in this?” I asked curiously, waving the cup under my nose.
Girl dont drink that
“Look,” he started. “You show up to a house party wearing a dress I haven’t seen since the sixth grade—”
IM SCREAMINGGGGG LMAOOOO
That was the text message that I’d woken up to that early Wednesday morning. For a minute or so I didn’t understand what he was trying to tell me.
Girllll
“You didn’t have to,” he gestured to me, moving his outstretched hand up and down, “do all of this for me.”
I would be so embarrased lol
He nodded, but quickly brushed this off with a roll of his eyes. “Morgan is Morgan,” Dad said dismissively. “But you… you’re my baby.”
I dont like when parents choose favorites
“Nigga!” Jay gave Marlon a look of irritation, genuinely offended. “We long distance.”
Lmaooooo
“No. Y’all ain’t going nowhere.”
IKTR
“Baby, I’m not mad at you,” Kain interrupted. My heart fluttered.
Ahhhh he called her baby
My eyebrows climbed to the top of my forehead. “You think I’m gonna be able to wrestle a gun out of someone’s hands.”
Omg i have a theoryyyyy, they make mistake her for her twin
“Oh my God, you are dumb. When did this happen?”
Lmaoooooo
“What happens when those worlds collide? Who would you be then?”
“You need to breathe.” It took me a stretched second to realize that Kain’s words were for me. Was he being serious
whew Kain !!!! Lol
He reached out, caressing my cheek with a gentle thumb, completely oblivious—or just indifferent—to how this visibly agitated my father. “Mm-hm, that’s my girl.”
HE BOLD LOL
“Child…” Dad sounded like he pitied
I heard this in my voice lol
“Besides, even though we’re not friends, I know you best. You wouldn’t have it this bad for Thug Bae if he was really out here being reckless. That’s not your type.”
Thats sad like yall are twins...
so it slammed in my face as I followed behind her.
We would've fought for that lol
Sanaa was so amusingly animated and perky. You could tell that she was the type to deliver the most offensive comments with the friendliest smile on her face.
I dont like her.
Cierra chuckled, picking through her salad. “Some girlfriend.”
Girl shut up
Sanaa perked up, setting the phone down. “How about next weekend?”
They are too pushy
“You,” he finished my sentence. “What you call ‘doing the most,’ is really just you bein’ yourself, no holds barred. And believe it or not, that’s how I like you best,”
“We really are so pretty,” she marveled. I laughed to myself. That was as close to a compliment that I could hope for from her.
That made me smile lol
‘Your Pops is a dumb ass nigga.’”
Lmaoooooo
“Fuck ‘em.” You need me.
Aggworlllll lol
“I know, Lauren.” His tone was chipper, a thinly veiled attempt to disguise a laugh as a lively mood. “You tell ‘em.”
LMAOOOOO RIGHT!!! Baby you aint seen grown yet lol
“You better get those savings,” he teasingly encouraged.
Lmaoooooo
I was done letting Kain be weak for me. I was going to be strong for him.
“When you get nervous, you talk. You ever notice that?”
I do too lol
But women think differently than men.
That we do lol
Kain’s sister ignored his request, belting out a, “No, fuck you, Kain. Making Amir do your shit like some sidekick, not visiting Uncle Vance after he spent twelve years in prison, and now you’re putting everybody at risk fucking around with this bitch.
Oh heck noooo
“He’s not picking up,” Cierra’s voice broke. “Oh my God, he doesn’t know.”
Omg Amirrrr
Swallowing my pride, I used the last bit of leverage I had left, saying for the first time, “I love you. Please don’t go. I love you.”
Omg omg omg
Then, with utter sincerity, Kain calmly replied, “I don’t care.” A sob ripped out from my chest, and Kain’s words seared into my
Whew baby this alot
Seventy-three people died. Many were wounded.
OMG
Amir Kwame Ofori died on June 11th, 2016. He was found dead at the scene, body riddled with sixteen gunshots in the staffroom at Poseidon.
NOOOOOOOOO OMG
“I didn’t go to El Salvador, Mr. Jean-Baptiste. Actually, I ran away from home.”
LMAO
